` Anulication -led 'April 16, 1217. i Serial No. 1m one Toallwhom ttf/gag] concern; v Be 1.- lmown that I Solomon H. (JonnnmxG, ecitizen of the Tunited States, residing 'in a. supplement-ery container by which they can be reedily pushed into view upwardly so that they can be more readily removed and can then be pushed back into the box so that they can be enclosed; to rovide e construction in which heirpins o various sizes can be mounted in the same conteiner and still be readily accessible in the manner just described; toprovide a construction which 'is economical of manufacture, which makes an attractive package undv in which the hairpins are, at all times easily accessible and in general to provide un impro-ved construction of the character referred to.

In the drawings:

Fig. 1 is a. vertice] sectional view of the box, the top shown as open.

Fig. 2 is e perspective view with the topopen but the supplementary' container entirely enclosed in the outer container.

F1 .3 is a. View similar to Fig. 2 but showing t c supplementary container raised to permit of the hairpins being more readily removed.-

i is n detail view showing the manner of formino' the inner box or container.

Fig. 5 is a. heteil view showing the manner of forming the outer box.

Referring to the drawings, 1 designates the side wells and 2 the end walls of the outer box, which are preferably formed of :t single piece of cardboard, paper, or other flexible material lin-ving its edges overlap ed as shown at 3 and cemented together. he top of the outer container is closed by end fia. 4 and 5 and a. side flap 6 having a4 confining tongue 7, which fits withinthe adju cent side Wall l when the top is closed. The bottom is similarly closed with end eps 8 end 9 and the side ila-p 10, having a confining lip 11 similar to the tongue 7. The centrai portion of the side fia-p 10 is provided with a. suitable aperture 12, which registers with the cut-away portions 13 and 14 4of the end naps 8 and 9 when'the bottom is closed;

12 serve as e fin r o nino for the u ose hereinafter. descigilmed.pe o p 'rp Describing now the inner container or compartment, it comprises side members 15 and 16, end members 17 and 18. The bottom of the inner compartment is closed .by means of end deps 19 end- 20 and a. side Hap 21 which extends across the entire bottom of the inner container end is provided with a. locking tongue 22, which fits within the ladjacent side wall. If desired, the front side wall 15 of 'the inner compartment is cut away or made shorter than the bock wall 16 in order that the pins may be made more accessible. The top of the inner compartament is open es there is no necessity of prothen seated in the outer container and the ends of the top end` of the latter closed. The filled box is new read for shipment. When it is desired to use t 'e hairpin, it is only necessary to first open the top of the outer container and then push u on the inner container by inserting the t umh or ling'r through the openin@r in the bottom of t e outer container. T 'is pushes the heirpins into view where the desired pincan be more readily removed. When the pins desired are teken out of the container, the inner container is then pushed beck undl the top closed.

The outer container is vpreferebl formed of a, single ieee of peper or card rd, or other flexib e material scored in order to bend it easily. The inner container is also formed in the same wey. This is advantageous in that it permits them to be stamped out of a. blank sheet and then bent along the roper lines to form the Ha. s and walls.

T e particular form end Styli:` of the box may be varied to suit the individual case. The invention is not limited to the details of construction shown.
